Known for comfortable gloves that perform unlike anything else on the field, Akadema has raised the bar with the Torino Series. With a light brown palm and a chocolate brown shell, the Torino Series performs even better than it looks! Akadema's newest glove line is made from soft and smooth kip leather that enables the Torino Series to be 20% lighter than traditional gloves, yet just as durable as U.S. steer hide. These gloves break-in quickly yet retain their shape better than any other glove on the market. This 13.00 Inch First Base Mitt is perfect for scooping up throws to first. With an H-Web design and a deep pocket, dropped and passed balls will be a thing of the past. The conventional open back on the Torino Series First Base Mitt gives players the control they've been looking for. Akadema: Bring Your "A" Game! Free Shipping!

Is this a good glove for fast pitch softball? Is the pocket deep enough?

Pat

This is not a specific fast pitch design so the finger stalls will be larger compared to a fastpitch model.

John

How long will this glove last? What is the break in time?

iScoop

The Academa Torino Series: ADT57-12 First Base Mitt will break in fairly quick and it will also retain its shape very well. This glove is made from kip leather which is just as durable as U.S. Steerhide. This glove is high quality and will last you a long time.

Nick

You guys and girls are a big help! Will this glove fit an adult hand?

Hank

The Akadema Torino Series: ADT57-12 should absolutely fit an adult hand! This glove is not designed as a youth glove, so you shouldn't have any problem using it as an adult.

Jennifer

Do you match prices? I see the same series glove on Amazon for $164.95.

Ray

We do match prices, but unfortunately we can't match Amazon or eBay.

Zach

Is this glove comparable to the A2000 1613BL?

Tom Z

The Akadema Torino Series will be very comparable to the A2000 1613BL. The Akadema will have slightly softer leather for a quicker break-in period.

Kara

For $200 what is the stiffest glove with the most longevity?

John

Some of the first base mitts that will have the best durability for under $200 will be the Nokona Walnut Series, Akadema Torino Series, Mizuno Classic Pro Soft Series, and the Louisville Slugger TPX Pro Flare Series.

Tom

Beside the size and pocket web design, what is the difference between the ADT57 and the ADJ154 gloves? Stiffness, durability. Etc.

Justin

Both have similar durability, but the Akadema Precision Series: ADJ154-12 First Base Mitt will be a little softer and a little more pliable than the Akadema Torino Series: ADT57-12 First Base Mitt.

Tyler

Would this glove work for slow pitch softball? I was also looking at the Worth CFBMX and the Miken BSBFT but I am worried about the stiffness and longevity of them.

jomig12

The Akadema Torino Series: ADT57-12 First Base Mitt is a baseball glove, but it does have a deep pocket and could be used for slow pitch softball. The Miken Super Soft Series: MSBFT First Base Mitt is specifically designed for slow pitch and would be the best fit.

Kara

How would this glove compare to the Rawlings Heart of the Hide mitt? My HOH is nearing the end of its useful life.

Darrell

The Akadema Torino Series (ADT57-12) First Base Mitt would be pretty similar to a Heart of the Hide in leather quality. The Torino Series, with Akadema's kip leather, will have a lighter feel than most Heart of the Hide models. The Torino Series will also have a pretty stiff feel out of the box, so it will take some effort toward the break-in.

In Akadema's short but remarkable history it has become one of America's hottest baseball and softball equipment company for professional, college, high school, and serious youth players. The Akadema phenomenon started with the Professional Glove Series and continues with the Reptilian®, Praying Mantis®, Pro Soft™ and Prodigy™ Glove Series as well as the Amish Wood™, Tacktion™ and Xtension® Aluminum Bat Series. Akadema's ownership attributes increasing market share to their innovative professional baseball and softball product line in contrast to mass-produced products that have little to do with quality, feel, or design to raise the level of play.

Akadema's products are manufactured for professional players but are now accessible to semi pro, college, high school, and serious youth players. Akadema products are still designed with the professional player in mind but competitively priced for the professional player at heart. So it's your turn to think like a professional, play like a professional, and use Akadema Professional!

Akadema now has both baseball and fastpitch softball advisory staffs that they work with closely to implement new ideas. Members of the baseball advisory staff include Hall of Famers Ozzie Smith and Gary Carter as well as Howard Johnson, Reggie Smith, Luis Polonia, Sandy Martinez and many others. Fastpitch stars that are on the advisory staff include Crystl Bustos and Julie Smith. The input on performance from the advisory staff gives Akadema something they cannot put a price on. Their advisors don’t talk about marketing or places to sell the gloves, they just care about performance.
